Both have the same denominator
Remove the denominator
5=n
First you minus 2y on both sides and you get: 5x=-2y+4. Then you minus 4 on both sides to get 5x-4=-2y which in turn is y (-2y) = mx (5x) + b (-4) : -2y=5x-4
<span>The number of ways to permute three correct answers among five questions is 5Choose3 which is 5!/(3!*2!) which equals 10.
We must then have the correct answer three times which happens .25 of the time, and two wrong answers 75 of the time.
So the probability is 10*0.25^3*.75^2 which is 0.087890625 or roughly an 8.8% chance.</span>
Answer:
x = -1 and y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 2y = -3 . . . . . . . (i)
x + 5y = 4 . . . . . . . (ii)
- Finding x in terms of y from eq. (ii) :-
x + 5y = 4
x = 4 - 5y
- Placing this value of x in eq. (i) :-
5(4 - 5y) + 2y = -3
20 - 25y + 2y = -3
-23y = - 23
<u>y = 1</u>
- Placing the value of y in eq. (i)
5x + 2(1) = -3
5x + 2 = -3
5x = - 5
<u>x = -1</u>
